The Voice of Youth

This project is a partnership between Academi, Gwynedd Council and Oriel Dafydd Hardy to celebrate the new Maes in Caernarfon. The Voice of Youth was an opportunity for local children to express their feelings about this new development in their town through workshops with the bard, Meirion Macintyre Huws.  The schools who took part in the project were Syr Hugh Owen , Hendre, Maesincla, Gelli , Santes Helen and Pendalar.

Gwen Lasarus Literature Promoter for Gwynedd said:
‘ I’m very happy to see the fruit of the children’s creative writing work in poster form with local artist’s original art work being presented to the children from each school. These children will remember this experience for a long time.’

Members of bocs were invited to transcribe the children’s poems into posters.
